Obituary.
MRS. CATHERINE TErw1LEE.

1
| Catherine AXE was born in Bedford coun-
ty, Pa, Dec. %, 1881, and was married Noy.
21, 1850, to NJ. B. Tetwiler. In 1856, with her
| husband and two small children, she left her
| native State and went to Iowa, whence they
removed, in 1857, to Pilot Knob, No., and
few months later to Ironton, where they
have resided ever since. She died at her
home in Ironton on the evening of Feb. %,
| 1881 Mrs. Tetwiler has been member Of
| the M- L. Church for nearly forty years, and
IN all that time her life has been consistent
and useful. Her character was marked by
the strong and practical virtues; she lived
in quiet and uncstentatious manner, doer
OF good, a friend of the right and those who
tried to be right, and an exemplary and true
christian. She was always strong friend
OF the church, and for years she was the
leading spirit in her church at Ironton, which.
| il it had not been for her faith, would have
been abandoned many a time; yet she lived
| to see it grow from the insignificant number
OF three 10 more than one hundred. In all
things she was devoted to principle rather
than guided by impulse. Her nature was
sensitive and easily discouraged, but the
firmness of her principles overcome her feel
ings of discouragement,a and she struggled ON
with unfiagglng energy, following her con-
science and judgment. Her life was one OF
the kind which ma6es itself felt through the
whole community, strengthening the good
and restraining the evil. The universal tes-
tlmony is to her usefulness and integrity.
Mrs. Tetwiler was the mother OF ten chill.
dren, nine of whom are still living, one hay.
ing died when an infant. Her motherly skin
in the training of her children is sufficiently
demonstrated by the result, for they have all
grown to be industrious, useful and honored
members of society. In seed, it is remark
able fact that the parents of this large family
of children never hada single thing to reflect
upon in the lives of their offspring which
could give them sorrow. Such family as
Mrs. Tetwiler has left is noindifferent legacy
TO the world. Her family, relatives, neigh
bors and church all feel that one OF Gods
best children has gone from among them;
but they have the assurance that the mortal
has been exchanged for the blessedly i'm
mortal. sE NJ

From Belgratle.

Ed. Register-It does seem to me that this
is the worst place in Southeast Missouri to
scare up any news.
Our old friend, Zenas Adams, surprised us
all by getting married to Miss Mary Woods
Although he was very sly about it, the young
folks give him rousin@ charIyari.
Mrs. James Mosier has been quite sick.
Robert Dickey has a very sick child.
Will Hluit has sold his farm and moved
to Bismarck.
Mr.. Chatborn is going to move to Irondale.
In thinking about something to write, /
wonder how your Goodland, Goodwater and
all the good correspondents find SO much to
write.
/ was surprised, as well as pleased, that
the ''Old Maid" gave me such hearty well
come, for old maids generally dislike old
bachelors. We had but one old maid and
she stepped over the line few weeks ago.
I would say to ''Old Maid" think we. can
suit her exactly: we have an old bachelor
here, age fifty, weight 255, and is very anxi-
Gus TO marry.
A couple of young men left this part of the
country for Colorado few weeks ago, and |
expect they are at Caledonia, Washington
county, by this time.
Mr.. Editor, don't mean this for all adver-
tisement, but if it should prove the means
by which the Old Bachelor should get wife,
ne will, no doubt, pay you for it: so hoping
it may be, viii close. OLD BACHELOR.

on ths shaft holster.
For the first time since the process Of tun
neling under ground at Pilot Knob mines
they have put a diamond drill to workin th'
rock heading III the shaft.
Erb. Smith is rushing the incline running
toward the new tunnel with four Rand drill
ing machines night and day.
A contract was let to sink u shaft down il

The engine room at the shaft is of many
angles, offsets and gables.
Something over five hundred feet below
the kessler bridge, in the main heading ol
tunnel No. 3, is where they broke through
into the shaft last week, and now the air Is
As pure in the shaft as it is in the tunnels,
which was not the case before this. The all
has been so bad on damp days that it was
almost impossible to work in some parts o.
| the shaft
Prof W. J. Rattle, mining expert as well
| as a chemist, and c. F. Stuart, of the West
eTn Steel company, took look at the incline
running down from the shaft to intersect
with the new tunnel, and pronounce it an a
No. / mine of itself, and of untold value.
According to the analysis of the pig iron
sent off from the z. X. furnace last month,
the report came back Oh the 2Sth of February
that the pig was the best made i'll the United
States for ste4f purposes. Perhaps some
may not put any truth in this, but it is OFF,
cial.
There is quite a number of machines run
ming, company count, - throughout the
tunnels and shaft at present.
If reports are true of the wreck on the
Iron Mountain road above here, there ap
pears to be danger outside OF the mine, as
well.
We regret very much TO hear Of the death
Of Mrs. Catharine Tetwiler, the wife of M. 3.
Tetwiler and sister of our editor, and who
was beacon of light 10 her children, hus-

mourned as one Whose place cannot be filled
to her surviving relatives and friends. They
have the sympathy of this community in this
their hour OF bereavement.

Can He Be Induced to Become Permanent Resi-
dent of Indianapols2

It is a matter for general regret that the de-
parture OF DR.. A. B. Barker. whose sojourn in
this city for the past two months and over has
been fruitful of such wondrous results in the
cure OF ego and throat affections, should be so
near at hand. We understand it is the Doctors
intention to return to his home. at Cincinnati
on the 10th of next month. It was hoped that
this celebrated scientific gentleman might be in
duced to take up his permanent resi-
dence at the capital Indianapolis as
railroad center has no superior among the in
land cities of the country. Our hotel accommo-
dations as good any in the country, and it
seems eminently proper that this city should
have among its professional men one who seems
well qualified for the position attained by
him. The rooms of DIR. Barker, now daily
tnronged with visitors, is excellent criterion
from which to judge of the skill of this gentle
man scientific oculist and aurist. But the
hundreds of afflicted ones cured by him and
who have failed to find relief from other ply
siclans, speak in letters of living light in his
praise If effort were made among cur citi-
zens. there is hope that city might number
among its denizens one 80 eminent in his pro-
fesson. Let the effort be made

many of the same people who have heretofore
appeared here in this play, including Frank
Roberts, Charles White, Frank Drew and 9th
